In fact, the “Star Wars: Episode VII” director says he has
fielded a lot tons of emails and analysis both defending and
arguing against the practicality and logistics of the new
lightsaber.

“I will say that what has been funny ... is since the lightsaber
has come out, I cannot tell you how many contradictory emails I
have received from people who have both defended it with
unbelievably detailed graphics,” Abrams told Collider. “I've
gotten things that are nuts. And I’ve gotten people who have
shown how it will kill you and how it doesn’t make any
sense.”

“It’s been the funniest thing to see the arguments that have
developed over this thing,” added Abrams.
